TV host and actress Jolina Magdangal gave birth a few days after she gave her fans a quick update about her pregnancy.
On May 25, Magdangal said she is having a bit of trouble carrying her daughter since has been suffering from gestational diabetes.
She said her gestational diabetes was affecting her baby. Regardless, Magdangal assured her followers that her baby is now doing fine.
Three days after posting her update, Magdangal shocked her followers when she posted a series of photos on Instagram showing that she has already given birth to a healthy baby girl they named Vika Anaya.
Magdangal gave birth to Vika Anaya via cesarean section at Asian Hospital and Medical Center in Alabang, Muntinlupa on May 28.
She posted the first photo of her daughter with the caption: “Andito na siya! Maraming salamat sa lahat ng dasal. Ang sakit ng tahi pero pipilitin ko kayanin. Sobrang worth it ang lahat ng sakit dahil sa nakita kong reaction ni Pele kay Vika. Will post pictures very very soon.”
Magdangal also posted another photo saying that she can’t wait to spend time and dress up her baby girl.
Magdangal was accompanied by her son Pele and husband Mark Escueta when she gave birth.
The 39-year-old celebrity mom even penned a touching message to her eldest child a few moments before she gave birth.
“To my dear Pele,
Thank you tinabihan mo parin ako matulog kagabi. Mas napanatag ang loob ko. Pangako ko sayo na hindi ito ang huling akap na tayong dalawa lang. Yayakapin kita habangbuhay hanggat gusto mo pa yakapin si Mama.
Kung pagkatapos manganak ni mama, wag ka magtaka kung bakit hindi muna kita makakatabi, sisiguraduhin ko na palagi ka ma-kiss at maparamdam na na-miss kita.
Pagkatapos ko manganak, kakayanin ko maka-recover agad para matulungan parin kita maligo, makalaro ka, makakwentuhan ka, at ma-enjoy natin ang bago mong kalaro na si Vika.
Mahal na mahal kita anak. Alis lang si mama sandali, pagbalik ko apat na tayo,” Magdangal wrote.
